So I feel like I should keep it in my own thinking space.<br /><br />Maybe fractals are kind of like visual poetry?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4591344875205032076.post-53058677335535238382009-06-12T13:25:17.707+02:002009-06-12T13:25:17.707+02:00I also like the idea of individual and community b...I also like the idea of individual and community <i>both</i> having meaning.<br />It's like a fractal - at each level of detail, there is meaning, beauty, purpose.
